Comparing two types of penile nerve blocks for child circumcision
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study tests two ways of numbing the penis before circumcision in children. The goal is to see which method works better and causes less discomfort.

This study compares two types of numbing injections (nerve blocks) given before laparoscopic surgery in children to see which one provides better pain relief after the operation. The blocks are done using ultrasound to guide the needle, and the goal is to reduce pain and the need for strong pain medicines.
This study compares two types of nerve blocks used to manage pain after circumcision (posthectomy) in children. The goal is to see which method provides better pain relief during and after surgery, helping children recover more comfortably at home.
This trial looks at two different ways to give numbing medicine for children having circumcision surgery. The goal is to find which method provides better pain relief during and after the procedure, helping your child be more comfortable.
This study compares two types of numbing injections to see which provides better pain relief during and after circumcision surgery in healthy children.
This study measures the exact location of the pudendal nerve (a nerve in the pelvic area) in children during penile surgery, to make nerve blocks safer and more effective. If your child is having penile surgery, they may be eligible to take part.
This trial compares two techniques for giving a caudal block (a numbing injection near the tailbone) to children having surgery. One method uses the usual way, and the other uses ultrasound imaging to guide the needle.
